Claudia
As a beginner photographer, Guy was incredibly helpful in introducing the fundamentals. It is clear that he has many years of experience not only in photography but also in teaching, which made for a very insightful and comprehensive class. Highly recommend!
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Essentially it's about listening, often not with your eyes. Most look but not see. It's about how to make something look like its not. It's about humility, putting the needs of the client before your own.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is to be photographed & to understand its importance to the client
A shot list of images required & their usages.
Budget
Deadline, if flexible for weather
Is talent / props needed
Important people, design features, details that need covering
Is video / drone photography needed
Presentation / delivery
What do you love most about your job?
Creative problem solving to a deadline. I get a buzz out of creating something from nothing. It's all I've done for the last 36 years and I still love and enjoy it. It still challenges me and I am continually learning. Its great to share my passion with my clients.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I think most and I start our own business to keep control of the entire creative process and to be able to concentrate on customer service. When you work for others you often only work on your small part and often see injustices upon others in business. When you run your own business you can take more control and responsibility of the whole process, and often look after people better and that is empowering.
Why should our clients choose you?
Go to the testimonials page on my website, mentoring or workshops to hear what other clients and people I have taught photography and creativity say. I care, I listen and I am deeply curious about the world around me.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I can shoot on location or in a studio. I have my own studio in bayside to shoot portraits, food, still life and product.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
